my weekly horoscope starts off like this:
"Even holding a lantern out in front of you won't help you see better right now -- it'll illuminate the fog and make the glare brighter."
fuck, forget week, that describes my whole year perfectly.
so i had my job interview. and left totally confused. the sketchiness of it should have been blinding, but i didn't catch on right away. from what i could gather, it combined sales, admin, inventory and warehouse work. no experience needed. face to face customer service. blahblahblah. the 600 bucks a week and 1000 dollar student scholarship sounded good, so when they called me later in the day to set up an orientation for monday i said sure.
and then i did some research.
turns out it's a scummy business-to-business sales job, hawking dollar store quality crap to suckers.
so my ego is pretty deflated right now. my friend is going to put in a call and see if he can get me a job at black's. and even after working there for a summer and knowing all the crappiness that comes with it, i'm actually excited.
